Good job on the press man!
Thanks man! Today was a light week and Iām itching for heavier weights next week. 47.5 for a single is the goal

77kg this morning. Weird because Iām still looking way softer at the same weight as last week.
On a side note yesterday was a pretty bad day of eating. The chicken i cooked tasted like arse so I didnāt eat much until dinner, which was fatty (but DELICIOUS) chicken and a small tart (also good)
Letās just change yesterday to the last 48 hours shall we?
Saturday Conditioning (On a Sunday)
Sprints
Warm-Up:
- 2x50m skip, walking back
- 50m karaoke per side, walking back
Sprints:
- 16x100m sprints in 20 minutes
Time:
26:13
Notes:
- Felt lethargic and nauseous from too much junk, sweating like a pig from the heat and tired from the movie marathon yesterday (to be a teen on holidays). This was plain awful
Also, Iām done with chicken breast. Chicken breast can go get salmonella and leave me tf alone
Going to go back to carbs and lean protein peri-workout and then fatty meat for the rest of the day. May also experiment with pre-bed carbs the night before training days, seeing as I lift early morning

Chicken thigh is what you should be eating.
Hard to get bored of chicken thighs if you season them to suit your tastes.

I prefer thighs, but over here theyāre too expensive.
- Whole chickens $4/kg with carcass
- Ground Beef $7/kg
- Skinkess Chicken Breast $9/kg
- Pork mince $10/kg
- Thigh $12/kg
$12/kg??
Wtf.
Aussieland must not have the gigantic chickens we have over here in the U.S. I can get chicken thighs for ~$2.5/lb, so ~$5/kg.

I hate chicken thighs. I like breasts much more
Chicken thighs double breadcrumbled up with a decent go at KFCās 11 Secret Herbs and Spices fried up good. Load up on whatever sauce you fancy: buffalo, tartare, sweet and sour etc.

Nice squat. Youāre pretty close to two biscuits now. Wasnāt too long ago that I squatted 100kg and it felt pretty bad ass at the time.
Probably descend bit faster in the bottom third and get more bounce out the hole. Was discussed in the squat form check I posted

They look pretty OK. Youād probably benefit from a bit extra ab and lower back work. Try to avoid cranking your head back, although Iām getting the impression that something you do more with heavier weight so just something to be aware of more than anything. Also push your knees out hard, just to encourage a more vertical shin.
